In 2012 an elite insider claimed that on or around March 4, 2014 the doomsday clock would ring, the effect of which would be a complete collapse of the U.S. economy.

How former Vice Presidential adviser Grady Means came to this conclusion with a specific target date may forever remain clouded in secrecy.

But given the state of current affairs around the world today, one can’t help but consider that maybe Grady Means was on to something.

With the fight over political and resource control in the Ukraine heating up, is it possible the Means was referring to this very set of circumstances?

We know the U.S. economy is literally on the brink of a collapse. All we need now is a triggering mechanism.

Russia’s Vladimir Putin may be using the current geo-political climate to position his pieces on the grand chessboard with the end game being a total wipe out of domestic equity markets and the U.S. dollar itself .

Given the horrid economic fundamentals in the U.S., mounting and un-serviceable debt levels, and the fact that China is now moving lock-step with their Russian counterparts, could we be seeing the final stages of a coordinated strike on U.S. economic and financial interests?

A few more moves and it could be Checkmate:

Putin understands the Achilles heel is this hyperinflated stock market… this man is brilliant.

Since we realize all warfare is based on deception, this backing off of troops here is a part of the play.

When he re-introduces those troops and makes his move here it’s going to crush the U.S. equity markets and take trillions of dollars out of this market and a lot of peoples’ pockets.

Vladimir Putin is not in any way going to back down to Barack Obama or any of the Western powers. He has no reason to do that. He understands where this going and what he needs to do to make this work here.

So this is the set up in my opinion.

He’s allowing cash to flow back into the world markets, more specifically into the U.S. equity market.

He’s going to re-introduce his troops almost in a Blitzkrieg type fashion and he’s going to destroy the stock markets.

We also know this… Vladimir Putin has been betting against the U.S. dollar for years by acquiring gold, just like you should be doing.

… The debt of the United States is in the biggest bubble in the history of the world. He knows all this.

This relief rally here… I can’t imagine that it’s going to last because he’s going to re-introduce troops here. It’s going to destroy this relief rally and then some.

We’re going to get panic selling… I think it can happen pretty soon.

…

Vladimir Putin is pulling a huge bluff on everyone right now allowing equities on a global scale to rise, only to reverse this move and crush equity markets which will destroy the United States economy.

The wealth effect that the Fed has created… Vladimir Putin knows that it is nothing more than smoke and mirrors. And he’s going to take advantage of that.

Make no mistake. Vladimir Putin strives to make Russia a global super power.

China wants the same.

In order for that to happen the United States of America must be crushed, and that starts with destroying our economy.

And if that means a temporary destruction of global equity markets then that’s what Russia and China will do.

Unlike President Obama, who bases his decisions on political surveys and half baked short-term platitudes, these nations operate with stratagems spanning decades.

For all we know, it was Putin himself who orchestrated the Ukranian coup.

He’s a former KGB operative, a brilliant strategist and he comes from the ‘old school’ of Russian thought.

Every move is carefully calculated and executed.

While President Obama plays checkers,

Putin is executing a Réti Maneuver designed to confuse and frustrate his opponent while leaving multiple pathways for the fait accompli.

The majority of informed readers understand that the collapse of America as we know it today is inevitable.

**In 2012 an elite insider claimed that on or around March 4, 2014 the doomsday clock would ring, the effect of which would be a complete collapse of the U.S. economy. --These claims are made on almost a daily basis.

**But given the state of current affairs around the world today, one can’t help but consider that maybe Grady Means was on to something. --The world and the worlds economy is always in (and should be) a state of constant flux and movement. (a stagnant economy is not a good thing and a "stable" economy is like a unicorn or pegasus)

** With the fight over political and resource control in the Ukraine heating up, is it possible the Means was referring to this very set of circumstances? --Ukraine is key to the Western world but not sure if the resource control here could crash an economic system.

**Given the horrid economic fundamentals in the U.S., mounting and un-serviceable debt levels, and the fact that China is now moving lock-step with their Russian counterparts, could we be seeing the final stages of a coordinated strike on U.S. economic and financial interests? --this is interesting not sure if I agree with there being horrid economic fundamentals in the U.S. I would argue that the bursting of the bubbles in the United States I.e. tech, housing, investing. Represents a healthy and fundamentally good economy. The bubbles are generated mostly because of the greed and speed of bad investments but they burst because the economy is as fundamentally sound as it can be (remember a stable economy is truly a mirage) I may need some clarity on the definition of un-serviceable debt?I don't think China is moving with Russia to bring down the economy of the US I do think China is however looking for more natural resources and new ways of making their dwindling resources stretch further.

This theory makes for a good story but in reality Russia is a nation that currently only brings oil to the economic table China only brings man power. The United states economy brings, oil, man power in numerable natural resources to the table and while the debt is high in the United States the country still employs pone of the highest GDPs in the world and the debt is much lower than almost all other industrialized nations While the US economy is not stable (and really it never will be) I do not think it is on the brink or will be pushed to the brink by Putin

Contrary to what some of you might think I am enjoying my life to the fullest.

I live one day at a time and I am glad that I indeed am old and in the twilight of my years for I doubt I will live long enough to have to endure the hardship which our children and grandchildren face.

God has truly blessed me already and I am confident that there is a better time ahead but it is not on this Earth.

The value of the dollar is important and should be fine as long as Americans never stop moving forward. The value of the dollar and it's recent fall is more than likely in response to a "shrinking" world. With advancements in communication, logistic, production and a more accessible world. The United States, Great Britain and Europe, are less bastions of financial control that they once were. Something similar happened to the Dutch when the routes for trade shifted.
